How’s your ticker? It’s important for you to know for sure! Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, and many people don’t realize they have a heart condition until it’s too late. The good news is that proactively monitoring your heart health can help reduce risks and improve your overall well-being.
What HRV Tells You About Your Health
According to Dr. Knowles, being able to increase and lower your heart rate is an excellent indicator of good heart health and overall body function. A higher HRV indicates that your heart can efficiently adjust to stressors, physical activity, and relaxation—signs of a healthy nervous system and heart. On the other hand, a low HRV may suggest that your body is struggling to adapt, leaving you more vulnerable to stress and potential health issues, including heart disease.
The Chiropractic Connection to HRV
Your nerve system plays a critical role in regulating HRV. Research has shown that chiropractic adjustments help improve HRV by reducing interference in the nervous system, allowing the body to respond more effectively to daily stressors. When your spine is properly aligned, your nerve system functions optimally, supporting not just spinal health but also heart health and overall organ function.
Protecting Your Heart Through Proactive Care
Routine chiropractic care does more than relieve back and neck pain—it supports whole-body wellness. By maintaining spinal health and reducing nervous system interference, you give your heart a better chance to function at its best.
